This game is not popular at all in the States, but from my understanding you don't actually play in the games, but rather sit back and watch as the manager?

Yeah man, sit there like a boss Very addictive game

It's more than that. You control everything that happens at your club. From transfers to contracts training to tactics to media to finances. You name it. The attention to detail is mind boggling. I dare say it's better than mere gameplay like FIFA, PES. But that's my opinion. Extremely addictive, I've been hooked for 10 years now.

I'll PM you if you want the latest version.

OK.. so that's version 7 he's done from what ive read... how many versions does he do and when would be best to update to it?!

[TrueChelseaBlue 105]

And what does this mean?:

NOTE:

This file will just keep getting updated.. no new file will be released ! You will know its been updated because of the title (V2,V3,V4 Etc) and because at the side is the date as to when it was released

[TrueChelseaBlue 105]

You have WINRAR right?

When you download those packs, you'll find they're .rar or .zip files. Basically they're compressed files. Right click on them and you'll find an option "extract to..." or "Extract files to specified folder...". Select that and a dialogue box will pop up. In that box specify the path to the graphics folder I mentioned in that earlier post.

OK i tried downloading http://thepiratebay....lelistContainer

But it won't download? and when i find it in my 'downloads folder' it won't open..

When i try and download it i get this message: This archive is either in unknown format or damaged.

(Get that message if trying to open it in WinRaR also)

So i find it in my 'downloads' folder and i get this message: This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel.

Ive always tried changing the file type to .rar .zip and that doesnt work either...

So i basically cant download it or do anything with it..

Right, look all i did was this, download Utorrent, just put it into google, i could imagine you already have it, then download the facepack, that link you have right there. Click download this torrent, it will take some time to download it, depends on your connection, it will come up in Utorrent, and once it has finished you click on what you've just downloaded and right click and open file, there it should open it for you. And then there should be a Data folder, and a reedme file, click on the reedme and follow the instructions. And from then on it should be very easy for you. If you need more help just ask.

[Kojo 4,676]

By the way guys, just a quick question, can you be an assistant manager or scout?, because when you go on jobs it comes up scouts and assistant managers, so you should be able to be one then right?. Just curious that's all.

Sorry TrueChelseaBlue I didn't respond to you, I just came home

@Sloth.

No. You can be a club or international manager. That's why the game is called Football Manager, not Football Assistant XD

That's ok, i'm doing it on uTorrent.. gonna take weeks apparently =/ lol

No worries, and by the way, it always says its going to take weeks when it first starts, give it like 10-20 minutes and it will give you the proper exact time, sometimes it says its gonna take 2 years to download.
